    The cool feeling when you miss the lawnmower and get a bit of petrol on your hand.

    Don't worry, I think the poster in question is referring to the medical procedure which was comprehensively discussed in the documentary Face-Off.


    Aren't ye?

    I'm much too jaded for simple pleasures. All my pleasures now have to be extra complicated.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Toast, butter and raspberry jam.

    The smell of petrol.

    Warm sand under my barefeet.

    Playing with some random dog.

    Staying in bed all day.

    Watching documentaries about monkeys.

    When Springsteen comes on the radio.

    The small of petrol is amazing!
    You'd eat it if you didn't know better.
    Mmmmm.......

    I personally thought these were more on the strange side than the petrol thing;

    when the kids are sleeping and there's peace and quiet
    never underestimate being able to drink tea/ watch tv or go the bathroom without 4 little children following you or screaming at you

    a good soak in the bath too
    clean sheets
    someone else making dinner

    I love the smell of petrol too. It must be from those Diesel train engines when I was young.

    Also, the smell of a new book (sniffffffffffffff)

    A long hot bath after hours of gardening.
    Bacon sandwich(or the smell of which makes it all the more enticing).
    Passing a chippy when I'm starving.

    Getting into bed with clean sheets and new Pjs

    Crisp sandwiches

    The welcome from my puppy when I get home from work

    A good yawn and stretch

    Unplanned duvet days where you just lie around watching the gilmore girls

    Getting a warning from the mods instead of an infraction.

    Logging in to boards to find at least half a dozen new PM's, and none of them are to tell you to **** off or inform you that you have been banned.

    Finishing a piece of work sooner than you thought you would.

    When a game you were about to buy suddenly appears on Steam with a 75% discount.

    Motorcycling.

    Those Crunchie Blast ice-creams. I drool over them.

    A pint bottle of Bulmers with loads of ice while i am sitting out on the golfclub balcony after posting a great score and watching lads hit their shots into the deep green-side bunker. Bliss.
